Was quite worried about getting Ye Newe Car in the garage environment. I opened the garage door and tried to ease it in reallllly slowly, but at a certain point just before it goes in the exhaust pipe or whatever's low in the back of the car scrapes against the pavement - with my last car, at some point it scraped so much it punched a hole in the oil pan or something. As soon as I heard it scrape I backed out and parked on the street. But we've got rich entitled young cretins in this neighborhood, and they caused at least two dings on my other car and I'm not going to chance that. So, I assessed the situation, I reviewed the situation, and then I tried a solution, which was to put two large pieces of cardboard boxing on the cement at the place where the steepness is just too much for today's motor cars. I then eased the car up and into the garage and lo and behold and behold and lo, no scraping at all. That's the trick for now and I may have my handyman assemble one large cardboard runner (I used two separate pieces) that I can just move in and out easily and that can just rest on the garage floor when not in use. So, now the car is safe inside the garage environment, and that's a good thing. And if I have to run out for something this very evening (doubtful) the Olde Motor Car is out front.
